"The lodge is beautifully situated within the Caravan Park, with magnificent views from the well-furnished decking/BBQ area."
The lodge itself is spacious and very well appointed. The soft furnishings and decor are in lovely condition and the kitchen is an absolute joy to work in (so my wife tells me!!)
Bedrooms and toilets are more than adequate and both have the benefit of a walk-in dressing room.
"Oyster Lodge", being only 20 minutes walk (3 minutes drive) from the nearest hotel is veritably a home from home.

"The lodge has everything you need and is very spacious."
The views from the deck are amazing- hopefully the bushes are kept low. Very clean also
You can walk to the harbour village of Kippford in 20 mins where there are 2 pubs. Lots of great coastal walks and the roads are quiet for cycling.

"A very comfortable lodge that is very clean, well equipped, and with beautiful views from the lounge/ front decking area on clear days."
It is furnished really nice and for the time of year was lovely and warm.
It is in a good location for local walks especially the walk through the forest to Rockcliffe which starts at the top of the coastal park. Kippford itself is only around 15 minutes walk with a nice dog friendly pub (The Anchor).
The only minus was the WiFi was weak and didn’t work very well at all but this wasn’t a major problem for us.

"I have downrated “comfort” only because the king-size bed mattress was rather soft and probably needs to be replaced."
In all other respects the lodge was immaculate, well appointed and really comfortable, with lovely homely touches in the decor, pictures and lovely nick-knacks.

"Oyster bay Lodge was amazing- better than we expected."
Spotlessly clean and everything you could possibly imagine was provided. Beautiful open plan kitchen and living area. My children enjoyed playing outside on the deck. Such a lovely, peaceful setting. We walked down to Kippford - quite a steep walk back pushing a buggy! We particularly enjoyed a breakfast and 4x4 tour around Bainloch deer park- less than 10 min away.

"A home from home is what to expect at Oyster Bay Lodge."
The open plan setting of the living/kitchen area is perfect. Fully equipped kitchen with everything you could need, breakfast bar for 2 and dining table for 4 people. Plenty seating on comfortable sofas to chill and watch the flat screen TV of an evening.
Double bedroom with en-suite was comfortable AND a walk in wardrobe was a welcome surprise. Would definitely recommend this accommodation.
A particular nod to the owner Andy who helped us out greatly. We were caught in some bad weather and he organised transport for my girlfriend and dogs while I waited to be recovered. First class *****

"The lodge was wonderful."
It's light, airey, very comfortable and the facilities available were way more than I expected.
The open plan living area and kitchen had everything and more than I could have wanted with great views through the picture windows. I didn't use the patio equipment as I was there in December. It may have been bitterly cold outside but I was cosy inside.
There was plenty of lighting in the bedroom, which makes a change to many other places I have stayed. The en-suite has a really good shower and a modern table top style sink. I liked that, not necessary but just gave that feeling of quality and style. Lashings of hot water. The bed was so comfy too and I slept really well as a result.
The park is beautifully laid out on a steep hill meaning that the lodges are each in their own little spot with nearby ones being either above or below so there are neighbours but there is privacy.
I loved the fact that there was a box of dog biscuits for the 4 legged residents!
The whole experience was such a pleasant surprise. Would I book this lodge again. DEFINITELY!

Nice lodge on a beautiful site however there was a lot of dog hair which came up in clumps when you walked around the carpets with trainers on, although we had a dog with us the hair was long and light coloured
Perhaps you require a more powerful vacuum cleaner (or a more powerful cleaner) to ensure that it has all gone before the next guests arrive
Other than that is is a lovely lodge

"Kippford Coastal is a lovely park."
The lodges and caravans are well spaced and shrubbery ensures privacy. Oyster Bay lodge was a beautiful well equipped property providing comfort and catering for our every need. It was in a great position on the park with fabulous views to the distant hills. A great place to relax. To be fair I think our two grandchildren aged 12 and 10 found it a bit quiet compared to some parks we have stayed on but they spent some time most days on the assault course and using the football nets. All told it was a great holiday and for the first time in many visits to Scotland we didn't see a spot of rain which was a great bonus.

"This is a lovely lodge on a pristine holiday park The views are breathtaking and the outside decking area is enclosed and not directly overlooked, so felt private and safe for our dog."
The gas barbecue is an added bonus and it was lovely sitting out on a night and having our breakfast in the sun on a morning. There were lots of walks from the park, including
the forest walk to Kippford, where there were two decent pubs, both dog friendly. The park itself is on quite a steep hill, which could be a problem for some people, although it was easy to drive round.
The lodge had everything we needed for our stay. It was clean, very comfortable and well equipped. We had a lovely stay and didn’t want to leave. Highly recommended!
